Jake Sharp. the Great BOOdler Gets Four Years

In New York, the great bride giver was
sentenced to four years in prison and a
fine Of five thousand dollars. Judge Bar
rett, in pronouncing sentence said:
He had never performed SO delicate a
task in his whole professional career. He
had received many letters from many peo-
Pile, pleading mercy and otherwise. but o
court was not appointed to be mercltul
any more than was dictated by the laws OF
Justice. The defendant herein, asking Tor
mercy, can give nothing as n plea for Glenn
ency but age and sickness. On the merits
of the case he certainly is entitled to none.
1t is absurd to state that he was not guilty
of giving the brides, as he WAS unmlstaka-
bly, the leader OF the whole affair. Wehave

any attempt to prove the defendant good
character. The crime itself was an enor-
nous one-the raising OF hall a million OF
dollars to corrupt half legislature.
Judge Barrett reviewed the corrupt action
OF the defendant in forming bogus COM
pany to contract with the Seventh Avenue
railway, OF which he was director,
and alluded to the defendant
securing 81, 900, 900 Of profit as stock lar
ceny, for which he could have been indict-
ed Just as we'll as for bribery. What is
there to excite pity or mercy except the
age and i'll health OF the prisoner and the
mourning condition OF his family? With
over 81 900, 900 in his pocket he clamor
Tor mercy without offering to pay back a
penny OF the amount stolen, SO that,
should he die in prison, his family has a
vast fortune to fall back upon The legis-
lature does not allow us to go below the
minimum penalty in such a grave offense
rs the present is. All things have been
considered, and the judgment OF this court
is that the prisoner be confined four years
Mt hard labor and that he pay fine OF
$1,000.

THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER.

The late Judge David Davis, of Illinois,
whose Judgment on any important prob

views as follows regarding the vatue of a
ssosl newspaper: Each year every local
paper gives from 500 to 5000 in free lines
for the benefit of the community in which
1T is located. No other agency can or will
do this. The local editor, in proportion to
mis- means, does more for his town than
any other ten men, and in all fairness, man
to man, he ought TO Zoe supported, not be-
cause you happen TO like him or admire his
writings, but because a local paper is the
hest investment that commEnnity can
make. 1t may not 'be brilliant or crowded
with great Thoughts, but financially it is
more OF a i5elelit to community than a
teacher Oh a preacher Understand lis now,
we do not mean moIally or Intellectually.
but financially, and yet on the moral ques-
zion Nou a7fA find the majority of the loca
papers on the right side of the question
To-day the editors of local papers do the
most work for the least money of any mer
on earth. Subscribe for your local paper
not as charity, but as an investment.
